@hchavers please don’t take that comment to be anything more than a salute to the play on words, intended or not. I am the last person who should intentionally pick at grammar, typographical accuracy, or spelling!

@gertiestn Standing on your toes makes your butt higher and rounder (this is a big part of the high heals effect). It also raises the calf muscle bulge closer to the knee, elongates the line of the leg and prevents the right angle at the ankle (which tend to look unnatural in photographs).

Meh, how about asking a range of meh staffers to try these on, so we have some idea of size. Not asking for pictures. Just something like “Female staffer who has a 33” inseam and weighs 150 pounds thought they were too small." or “5’6” male staffer, 180 pounds, thought they were comfy, but stretched so much they were translucent"

First, you were definitely blessed by the irony fairy. Did anyone ask how to lose weight? They did not. And yet here you are giving advice.

First point five, I did not assert that exercise and weight loss were closely related. Lots of random Dunning Kruger victims still think exercise is a key factor in CICO. Many of them feel comfortable making intrusive lifestyle recommendations, including exercise. And a subset of concern trolls are vociferously repulsed by the sight of fat people wearing tight clothes or being sweaty. These people are venomous shitgibbons.

(First point seven five, you know who directly benefits from exercise? Type 2’s. Who are often fat or stocky. It can dramatically reduce blood sugar. So if you could NOT downplay the value of exercise, that’d be great.)

Second, I didn’t “bring up weight in a negative manner”.

Third, shitty comments were made. They’re collapsed but still exist. I don’t know if any were deleted.

@whogots That’s cute that you think what I said construed advice of any sort. I’ll concede that I might have missed a negative post but I read through all of the comments and didn’t see one at the time of my posting.

I love these, have several and just ordered another set. I’m 5’4, 170 pds. When it’s cold, I wear them on my walks. They’re better than sweats and so comfortable. They breathe good too so I never get hot in them. Love them. I wear a longer t-shirt with them and a sweatshirt.
